FDA Approves BridgeBio's Attruby (acoramidis) for ATTR-CM
• The FDA has approved Attruby (acoramidis) from BridgeBio, marking the first new treatment in over five years for transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM). • ATTR-CM, affecting over 400,000 globally, results from misfolded protein deposits in the heart, leading to impaired function and, without treatment, death within five years of diagnosis. • Attruby aims to stabilize transthyretin, preventing misfolding and subsequent amyloid formation, offering a new therapeutic option for both genetic and age-related ATTR-CM. • This approval signifies BridgeBio's first major commercial product, addressing a critical unmet need in the treatment of this progressive and life-threatening heart condition.
